We reported a few weeks ago that, in the continuing bizarre and unfortunate trend of old games being made into movies, Peter Berg (The Rundown, Hancock, The Kingdom) would be directing the adaptation of the classic (and boring) game "Battleship."...

I was trying to remain positive about this upcoming Battleship movie because I think director Peter Berg has the potential to be great, but he's making it really hard for me right now. Latino Review got the scoop a few days ago that the big bad in Battleship won't be Nazis, reverse vampires, or ominous looking pegs. Instead, it's aliens. With this news I'm getting the sinking feeling that we're not...

Peter Berg is directing Battleship, the adaptation of the board game, but the big question has been just where is the story going to go? Well there may just have been a big reveal online, and if it's true then it may well look epic. When it was announced I had mixed feelings. First I thought that it would give such creative freedom for the writers that we could end up with something good ready to make...

But seriously. We already know that the classic Hasbro board game, Battleship, is being adapted into a live-action feature film to be directed by Peter Berg. We know that Universal is planning on releasing it on August 5th, 2011. We know that the film will be shooting next Spring. What we didn't know, until now, however, is just who the international five-ship fleet (discussed by Berg) would be fighting....

As it stands now, I may have to retract what I've been saying about Battleship . Peter Berg is attached to direct the board game movie and he said a couple months ago what a big Navy buff he is and how he has this vision of a great big non-historical WWII naval battle film, and that would be fantastic. Or could be; I should soften my certitude. Anyway, Berg updated his stance since latching on to...

WARNING: As the headline implies, there are potential and substantial spoilers below. When we first heard that Universal was making a movie based on the classic game BATTLESHIP, it led to some head-scratching. How did they figure out a way to transform random guesses and the insertion of plastic pegs into a compelling and family-friendly movie about naval combat? What was it that lured filmmaker Peter...

We're not quite sure if we like this idea or not (it falls under the intriguing yet silly categories simultaneously), but according to Latino Review , the antagonists in director Peter Berg's new Battleship movie will be aliens. Yep, that's right, they're apparently from outer space, if Latino's report is correct. "ET, you sank my battleship!" Not much else is known about the Peter Berg-helmed...

We’ve got Ridley Scott’s Monopoly on the horizon. We’ve got Peter Berg’s Battleship. We have Ouija. Risk? Hey, why not? Sony Pictures has picked up the board game that is hell-bent on world domination. So what does that mean? Well, according to one of Columbia’s representatives, it means a world of possibilities: “The strategic thinking and the [...]

Ridley Scott has been talking about directing Monopoly for some time now. Peter Berg is still waiting to board a Battleship movie. Kevin Lima is going to take us to Candyland. And now, Sony Pictures is planning a big screen adaptation of RISK.

Not all board game to movie adaptations are a completely bad idea. For instance, Battleship has the potential to be a very cool water-based war film, especially with Peter Berg at the helm. But when does a brand name hurt the adapted property? Would a Battleship movie be taken more seriously if it weren't named after a board game? Why does Universal need to pay the rights for the name anyways? The...
